dc.description.abstractThe influence of oil sardine (sardinella longiceps) and coconut oil together on the fatty acid composition of various organs and on the serum cholesterol level of albino rats was studied. Fatty acid pattern of the different organs was affected to varying extents by the dietary fatty acids. The level of arachidonic acid in the liver was found to be independent of the dietary supply of this acids, but appeared to be related to the level of linoleic acid in the diet. Dietary sardine was found to be very effective in lowering the serum cholesterol level even in the presence of a cholesterol-elevating agent such as coconut oil. This effect can be due to the high content of polyunsaturated acids in fish lipids as well as the nature of fish proteins.en_US
